Turnberry, the luxury blue high-rise towering over Rosslyn, is welcoming another local business celebrity.

Barbara Allbritton, executive vice president of Allbritton Communications Co. since 2001, just bought a unit for $2.4 million. The media giant owns Politico and network-affiliated television stations serving various U.S. markets.

Turnberry was the area’s top-selling luxury condominium project in 2010, with $100 million in sales. The 2-year-old, 26-story building boasts posh units with Miele European cooking appliances and Sub-Zero refrigerators, trading at an average of $700 per square foot.

It also has an indoor swimming pool, a spa and Smart Home technology that allows residents to request maintenance and valet services without lifting a finger.
